Not sure what happened or whoever did the magic, but the problem is gone on Ubuntu 16.04, somewhere between the end of August and the first two weeks of September. Moving images are as fast as it used to be (and should be). I tested moving 1,000+ JPG files several times and it happened instantly. It used to show "Preparing to move files ..." for a few minutes, even with just 100 image files.
Anyway, would be great if a dev can drop an explanation. Otherwise, people please test/verify and we can close this ticket then. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1571540 Title: Moving files nautilus extremely slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1571540/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
